• PhotoDesk 3.25 available now

    From Andrew Rawnsley@3:633/10 to All on Tuesday, October 21, 2025 22:00:04

    We are pleased to announce that version 3.25 of PhotoDesk is now available
    to download for existing users via !Store.

    Following on from 3.24's colossal number of changes, 3.25 is a much
    smaller affair, correcting a few things that slipped through and have been reported since:

    "click_in_rotate" routine called "click_in_draw" with the
    incorrect number of paramters. Now fixed.

    Resize and Rotate functions had Bi-cubic and Bi-linear modes
    swapped. Expected operation has been restored.

    PNG files were being saved without compression, leading to very
    large files. Since PNG compression is lossless, this was not
    sensible, so PNGs are now compressed as you'd expect.

    The update is available as a free download for anyone who purchased the
    XAT edition (3.18+) of PhotoDesk some years ago.

    We will have a number of fresh CDs with 3.25 on at the London Show this weekend. We offer them as very low cost "stocking stuffers" for existing users. The CDs contain extra software (3.25 adds Chris Terran's GradGrind palette editor designed for use with PhotoDesk) that wouldn't fit in the regular download, plus extras like full sets of example images and documentation etc.

    If you don't have a CD drive, bring a USB stick (we do sell them, but they tend to be larger ones) and we'll copy the CD contents onto the stick for
    you.

    Best wishes,

    Andrew
